ElevateU Academy is a division of Talent Connect

Talent Connect works with organizations every day to solve hiring, workforce, and leadership challenges. Through that work, we see firsthand what happens on the candidate side when transitions are not supported with clear market context, positioning strategy, and recruiter-level guidance.

ElevateU Academy was built to close that gap — extending Talent Connect’s hiring and workforce expertise directly to professionals navigating career change.

What Is ElevateU Academy?

Navigate Your Next Career Move With Strategy — Not Guesswork

ElevateU Academy provides structured, recruiter-informed career strategy for professionals navigating transition, advancement, or repositioning — and for organizations supporting talent through change.

Unlike generic job-search programs or resume services, ElevateU is grounded in how hiring actually works today.

Our approach is built on:

• Real recruiter and executive search perspective
• Market-aligned positioning based on active hiring insight
• Structured frameworks — not mass applications or outdated tactics

This is the same strategic thinking Talent Connect applies on the employer side — now delivered with intention, discretion, and clarity to professionals navigating critical career moments.
